As the owner or manager of an SME, you know one thing for certain: money makes the world go round.
Nothing happens without it. So why aren't the people who manage the money treated like rock stars?
Instead, they're often seen as the bean counters or the party poopers. Doesn’t make sense to us.


At Flight Centre Business Travel, we believe finance pros should be celebrated for the crucial role they play, especially when it comes to keeping your corporate travel program running smoothly. The truth is, good finance and reporting processes don’t just keep the lights on—they create opportunities, save you money, and give you control over your business travel spend.

So, sit back, because this might just be the most exciting thing you read today! Let’s dive into how smart processes can take your travel program to the next level and make your life a whole lot easier.

Post-Trip Finance and Reporting

No one enjoys travel admin, but let’s face it: the trip’s not over until the last expense claim has been lodged, approved, and reimbursed. FCBT is here to ensure that the post-trip process is simple and transparent—from end to end.
